Hi,

I have xorg installed, with the following packages:
fonts-xorg-100dpi.noarch                 6.8.1-1
fonts-xorg-75dpi.noarch                  6.8.1-1
fonts-xorg-base.noarch                   6.8.1-1
xorg-x11.i386                            6.8.1-12.FC3.21
xorg-x11-Mesa-libGL.i386                 6.8.1-12.FC3.21
xorg-x11-Mesa-libGLU.i386                6.8.1-12.FC3.21
xorg-x11-deprecated-libs.i386            6.8.1-12.FC3.21
xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-devel.i386      6.8.1-12.FC3.21
xorg-x11-devel.i386                      6.8.1-12.FC3.21
xorg-x11-font-utils.i386                 6.8.1-12.FC3.21
xorg-x11-libs.i386                       6.8.1-12.FC3.21
xorg-x11-tools.i386                      6.8.1-12.FC3.21
xorg-x11-twm.i386                        6.8.1-12.FC3.21
xorg-x11-xauth.i386                      6.8.1-12.FC3.21
xorg-x11-xdm.i386                        6.8.1-12.FC3.21
xorg-x11-xfs.i386                        6.8.1-12.FC3.21

I have also got the nvidia-drivers installed:
nvidia-graphics.i386                     2:1.0-4.at
nvidia-graphics-devices.noarch           1.0-4.rhfc3.at
nvidia-graphics-helpers.i386             0.0.8-8.at
nvidia-graphics4496-libs.i386            1:1.0_4496-65.1.rhfc3.
nvidia-graphics6629.i386                 1:1.0_6629-65.1.rhfc3.
nvidia-graphics6629-kmdl-2.6.10-1.766_FC 1:1.0_6629-65.1.rhfc3.
nvidia-graphics6629-libs.i386            1:1.0_6629-65.1.rhfc3.

This is run on a Fedora Core 3 box.

My problem is this: Whenever I try to run an OpenGL-application (such as
glgears, or a screensaver) xorg crashes and restarts.

Do any of you ppl know what might be wrong with this setup? Should the
"Mesa" packages be there? I have never before used any such packages,
they just showed up suddenly.

Best regards,
Christopher
